WEIGHT RESISTANCE CHART The chart below shows the approximate weight resistance at each exercise station. The numbers in the left column refer to the 11-lb. weights. Note: The actual resistance at each station may vary due to differences in individual weights and due to friction between the cables, pulleys, and weight guides.

MAINTENANCE Make sure that all parts are properly tightened each time the weight system is used. Replace any worn parts immediately. The weight system can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Do not use solvents to clean the weight system. TIGHTENING THE CABLES Woven cable, the type of cable used on the weight system, can stretch slightly when it is first used. If there is slack in the cables before resistance is felt, the cables should be tightened.
CABLE DIAGRAM The diagram below shows the proper routing of the cables. The numbers in each drawing show the proper route for that cable. Use the diagram to make sure that the cables and the cable guides are assembled correctly. If the cables are not assembled correctly, the weight system will not function properly and damage may occur. High Cable (53) Length: 8 ft. 2 in. (250 cm) 1 1 2 2 4 Arm Cable (51) Length: 5 ft. 9 in.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES FOUR TYPES OF STRENGTH WORKOUTS Note: A “repetition” is one complete cycle of an exercise, such as one sit-up. A “set” is a series of repetitions. Muscle Building—Work your muscles near their maximum capacity and progressively increase the intensity of your exercise. Adjust the intensity level of an individual exercise as follows: • Change the amount of resistance used. • Change the number of repetitions or sets performed.
